That’s because it is not tied to stremio, otherwise it would be illegal, you have to search for it :P

Easy there, tiger. You will get there, don’t worry.

No one should ever know about the torrentio addon for Stremio!

By the way, registrations are open, and the open beta begins August 10th.

Oh I totally agree, I am very fatigued of violence driven games, and have high hopes for Palia. I’m just a little apprehensive that if they just try to copy the non combat parts of zelda and mix it up with animal crossing, it’s not going to be enough.

Same here, though I do wonder how they will keep us interested, as they have deliberately not shown any combat. Not even stardew valley went as far as removing combat from the gameplay loop.

EXAPUNK - 50% - 96% Positive

If you like old time puzzle games, and have a pinch for programming, then you will love this. In this game you control bots by creating algorithms to extract data and other challenges. The cool part is you must study the game language and learn the lore from manuals and magazines that the game provides.

SHENZHEN I/O - 50% - 93% Positive

From the same creator of EXAPUNK, only the thematic here is electronics.

Road 96 - 50% 91% Positive

Summer 1996, Today is the day! You hit the road. Adventure. Freedom. Escape. Run. Flee the Regime. Try to survive.

On this risky road trip to the border, you’ll meet incredible characters, and discover their intertwined stories and secrets in an ever-evolving adventure. But every mile opens up a choice to make. Your decisions will change your adventure, change the people you meet, maybe even change the world.

The spreadsheet.

Always start with the spreadsheet, and go uo from there!

I only use the web UI, jerboa didn’t click with me. The only issue I have with it s that collapsing comments can be tricky.

I think the plan should be bracing for impact, and how to deal with the after-effect. Because let’s be honest, we are in a late stage capitalism, and Meta megacorp will get what it wants.

I don’t currently see it spilling it’s poison to Lemmy/kbin. I’m hopeful rather, but I may be misunderstanding how the fediverse works.

But for mastodon, I would say the outcome is a segregation, as it’s safe to assume that communities that integrate wirh Meta will be consumed. Unfortunately that likely means starting from scratch, with a even nichier community, as far as I can see. Not exactly from nothing, but content loss will be inevitable, which is the Fediverse greatest weakness imho.

Everspace 1 and 2 are both solid games if you like space exploration and shooting!

You are right in assuming there will be a symbyosis between AI generated text and human generated text, but jumping from there to assume that we will be using solely AI generated text is wrong, in my opinion.

AI generated content is not good enough on its own, despite what OpenAI marketing team wants you to think. No quality content is made by simply prompting chatGPT. Not just in writing, but in any field of knowledge, actually. Using chatGPT without some level of domain and fact checking on the subject you are prompting is a sure way to get screwed, as some lawyer in the USA will tell you.

But going back to writing specifically, what we will see at first is actually an improvement on the overall quality of human generated writing, with AI offering a solution to the mechanical and usually boring side of writing good content, such as eloquence, syntax, clarity, etc.

Then, what we will also begin to notice is the more frequent use of what I like to call shitstorming.

Shitstorming consisting in prompting a LLM model to bring up ideas, drafts and opinions on subjects you want to write about, and have some understanding on. What you will receive in response will be a biased, somewhat lacking content, which will either inspire you to modify and refactor in a way that it makes sense, or make you so angry that you will have to write something better in response to it. Writer’s block will become a thing of the past.

There are others aspects and nuances to this symbiosis, but to avoid going longer on an already long post, I would conclude by saying that this evolution will be a loop that will keep improving LLMs, while also improving human writing simply because we will continuously look for ways to make the content better, and more original.

The bad side is that, for those that don’t know how to use the tool, the amount of lacking content and standardized communication will indeed flood the internet, but this will only serve to contrast original content to the point where we will immediatly recognize the two apart, much like we do with advertising nowdays.

Oh yeah, I totally forgot the Usenet, before my generation, sorry!

Innovation is a spiral, ain’t it?

Used to be a fan of Louis back on my days of computer repair shop. Nice to see he is still going strong!

But yeah, the writing on the wall is clear, and it’s not just Reddit. Imho, this situation emphasizes the importance of smaller, connected communities rather than massive social media platforms. We came to love massive social networks, but didn’t realize the consequences of getting lost in the crowd and becoming mere data points for profit. Small, connected communities offer a more personal and respectful alternative.

What we have here with the Fediverse is a gold mine. Picture 00’s phpbb forums, but all with access to each other. That just sound like a good time to me. It’s rough around the edges, sure, but it’s our own corner of web.

Oh yeah, my hopes are high, I already am quite fond of this new home. :)

I think preservation is happening, the issue lies in accessibility. Projects like Archive.org are the public ones, but it is certain that private organizations are doing the same, just not making it public.

This is also something that is my biggest worry about the Fediverse. It has tools to deal with it, but they are self-contained. No search engine is crawling the Fediverse as far as I’ve looked, and no initiative to archive, index and overall make the content of the Fediverse accessible is currently in place, and that’s a big risk. I’m sure we will soon be seeing loss of information for this reason, if not already happened.

Theres more to it than that, vut it does help. However, the base issue here I think is that they just don’t crawl the federated space yet.

This is the gist of it. It will happen again, and again, and again. After they go public, every quarter that they need to come up with some shenanigans to satisfy shareholders, it will happen again. Eventually, either a new thing will come up and start it all over again, or we will be mostly decentralized.

The main issue for me is also the pvp aspect, which in reality just makes for a somewhat unfair game. I would love a battle royalish game that was PVE, or just collaborative in some manner, where everyone got together to fight bots and gain control of the territory. It’s definetly tougher to implement, but it would be great.

Lemmy was not created last week, man. All you see here today already existed and was running when spez hit the fan.

In that sense, part of what attracts me to this is a bit of the barrier to entry. I find it enticing, it reminds me of the good old days, where you had to earn your way in, in a sense. Of course that’s silly old man talk, because honestly, all you have to do is select any random site and sign up.

Lemmy.world, Lemmy.ml, it all comes down to the same thing. This “barrier” to entry is almost fictitious, and I feel that’s the ideal type of barrier.
